Looks legit, few comments.
Are all the fonts the same? some of the bullet points look different
"insight into concepts related to finance" - like what? Operating model? Valuation? Anything you can list that will support your application
Mcdonalds, 2nd bullet I think it should be 20% increase "in" sales (over what period?)
Powerpoint, Excel, Word need capital letters
Decent resume. Semi-target, non-diversity, and subpar work experience will make it hard to land a spring week imo so maybe target the lower tier banks
Nah that's harsh, at the end of the day it's a CV and only a CV. Interviews matter much more. I'd recommend to apply to a range of banks across 'tiers'. I've seen worse CVs get SWs and some of these guys ultimately gone on to FT
ok maybe I was a bit too harsh, but in my bank’s 2022 spring week only ~10% was non-diverse so just telling OP as a heads up in case he gets rejected
Thank you for your reply, I know a CV is only for passing the first stage of the application process but I would need to prepare hard for the online tests and interviews.
Do you think I need to change anything on my CV?
It’s a Spring Week, CVs don’t matter, it’s just a formality. At the end of the day it’s a numbers game if you do well on the tests.
lol literally this^ I killed spring recruiting and it was 50/50 luck and interviews.
Thank you for your comment, I know my CV is just a prerequisite but I will need to beat the ats software to get into the online test stage Just want my CV to pass the first stage.
Anything I need to change in my CV like grammatical errors or formatting?
